Summary

Description
English: A saftey officer from 2 PARA provides range covers his ears as French paratroopers fire a AT4 (Anti-tank 4) on Salisbury Plain training area for Ex Wessex Storm.

The French unit trained alongside the 2 PARA Battlegroup so that British and French airborne forces are ready to deploy together on short notice missions.

The CJEF was established as part of the defence and security, and on nuclear cooperation treaties signed at Lancaster House by the UK and France in 2010.

The UK and France are deployed around the world together in places such as the Middle East to combat Daesh and Estonia as part of NATO’s Enhanced Forward Presence. In Mali 3 RAF Chinooks and 100 UK personnel are deployed in a non-combat role in support of French counter-extremist operations.

The UK will continue to cooperate with our European partners in the future following the UK’s departure from the EU. We will continue to be a key player in Euro-Atlantic security and defence through our leadership in NATO, which will always be central to the UK’s security, our values and our place in the world.
